Messed up Netflix...

[mipermips]

Hi Guys,
I have a mk809iii with old wifi chip.
I've flashed the new mk802iv ROM from w2comp date: 06/19/2013

I've tried a few roms with the old wifi chip but always get this messed up screen when I load a video on Netflix...

I've already tried that ROM... Does anyone know what causes this?

I think Netflix uses silverlight to play movies .... the software would have to be embedded in the OS ... so the only cure for that is different firmware ... ive read this was an issue for firmware made around july.. when you've flashed or updated the firmware did you erase or wipe the old one first?

Was interested to see what makes Netflix tic in android ... upon looking a lot further I noticed it uses its own DRM instead of the standard ms silverlight that we see in windows ... this is more complicated by the fact that most android roms, even standard stock phone/devices are custom made/compiled... which means that the netfix app will not work the same on each device and it had to be developed extensively to even run on the limited devices that it does .... the current DRM is handled in the rom software so it would be important for the sake of usage and compatibly to have the latest rom and Netflix app installed

Here is a picture of a functioning android OS



the current netfix app must have drm in somewhere in the green section of this picture
